Juice: Summary of the Book by Eric Walters
Juice Book chat The book I read was written by Eric Walters and is called Juice. The book Juice was about a football Star named Michael Monroe (nicknamed Moose). Juice takes place in a small farm town in Georgia. The book starts off with Moose’s team winning the state championship. Which after they win later in the locker room Moose’s coach announces to his team that he has decided to retire from coaching. So it’s announced that a Division 1 coach, which is the level above Moose’s High school, is interested in coaching for this team if he receives money to redo the whole Football program. So this new coach buys all new equipment and a fully changed the state of the art training facility. To Moose and all the other Team all this sounds wonderful but they feel something is weird. This new coach even has a strength trainer that is going to work with them throughout the summer to help them get ready for the upcoming season, who also worked with professional football players. So as Moose continues to show up each day to lift weights and train this new trainer feels as if training the right way isn’t enough, and is starting to put some “extra” ingredients into the player’s shakes. So then comes the day when Moose shows up and this trainer pulls him aside to offer him some Anabolic Steroids. Now Moose is faced with the decision of taking them and being one of the best player to ever go to this High School. Or just working his hardest everyday to improve and being the best he can while being the true winner. Now I really liked this book I recommend this book for people who like football or for people who just like sports in general if I had to rate this book I would rate it a high 7.5

THE END!!!

    Steroids in Sports

    Many athletes who decide to take steroids don’t realize the side effects they can possibly deal with. They usually don’t care though because they would rather take the risk of trying to reach the professionals where they can possibly make millions of dollars and reach stardom. The most common type of steroid used by athletes are anabolic-androgenic steroids. Steroid Abuse in Today's Society, a March 2004 publication of the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration's (DEA) Office of Diversion Control, defines anabolic steroids as "synthetically produced variants of the naturally occurring male hormone testosterone"(Robert Jacobson, 2006). There are many unfair advantages users have over those who don’t take steroids. They help enhance physical performance by increasing muscle size and strength and help train faster in less time. It is also known to increase an athlete’s agility and speed. The drug also helps users recover a lot quicker, which in terms means the athlete can get back to training a lot sooner than normal.

    Exploring Adolescent Use of Performance-Enhancing Substances

    Since the introduction of anabolic steroids, the main objective of using them has been widely abused. The use of these substances has steadily increased throughout the years. As popularity of anabolic steroids escalated, so has its demand. With the inception of anabolic steroids in the world of professional sports, the acceptance of doping amongst athletes was positive. During the 1970s, there were no repercussions for taking anabolic steroids, and so athletes, especially football players and weight-lifters, were trying to get that physical advantage over their competitors. Many professional baseball and football players of this most recent generation have used anabolic steroids. In football there was the great Lawrence Taylor, Bill Romanowski, and Shawne Merriman. In baseball, a steroid scandal involved the great Barry Bonds, and numerous baseball prodigies who juiced up such as Mark McGwire, Jose Canseco, Alex Rodriguez, Roger Clemens, and Manny Ramirez. Not only have baseball and football players used anabolic steroids, but other types of athletes, such as power-lifters, as well. In track and field, Tim Montgomery was cited for doping. In recent years, female track and field athletes such as Marion Jones were busted for using anabolic steroids. With the accessibility of anabolic steroids increasing at an alarming rate, a person has to wonder what kind of effect anabolic steroids could have on adolescents? If doping really is becoming accepted amongst professional athletes, what kind of influence will it have on the adolescents? This research analysis essay will be exploring the physical and mental risks and consequences for adolescents using anabolic steroids as well as their motivation for doping.…
